The Torridon

Victorian shooting lodge on a sea loch with hill walking from the door

This hotel is part of the Daisy Curated Collection. Its information has been researched and verified, but Daisy has not yet personally stayed here. When she does, this page will be upgraded to a full Daisy Verified inspection.

Daisy's Assessment
Researched and verified. Not yet personally stayed.
A former Victorian shooting lodge on the shore of Upper Loch Torridon, with 58 acres of grounds and the Torridon hills rising straight behind it. There are two sides to the place, the main house with its 1887 restaurant and whisky bar, and the more relaxed Stables and Bo & Muc across the yard. It suits walkers and climbers who want a proper bed and a serious dinner at the end of a long day on Liathach or Beinn Alligin. Dogs stay in Chestnut Cottage or in the ground floor Stables rooms.

Why it's in the collection

The Coire Mhic Nobuil path towards Beinn Alligin starts a few minutes up the road from the gates, and the shore of Upper Loch Torridon is right across the drive for a shorter leg stretch before dinner.

Best suited for

Dogs stay in Chestnut Cottage or a ground floor Stables room, and eat with you at the Beinn Bar rather than in the 1887 restaurant.

The open question

How the welcome translates in person, at dinner and around the hotel. That's what a Daisy stay will confirm.

Two dog-friendly options, Chestnut Cottage at the hotel with its own walled garden, and the ground floor rooms at The Stables. The Beinn Bar at Bo & Muc takes dogs for food and drink, the restaurant side of Bo & Muc does not, and the 1887 restaurant and breakfast service are people only. Dogs are free to walk the 58 acres of grounds on a lead near the house and gardens, and the hotel asks you to steer clear of the fields with cattle.

Where we can't yet confirm a detail first-hand, we mark it plainly rather than guess. A Daisy stay will close every gap.
